2006 Peugeot 1007 1.4L Petrol · BD56 WLO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than preventative care. The most recent test in April 2026 at 87,067 miles passed despite an advisory for a damaged or perished offside rear inner tyre. This follows a failure in April 2025 where an exhaust leak and a faulty nearside stop lamp prevented an initial result. While the immediate mechanical failures were rectified, the recurrence of tyre-related issues suggests the owner only addresses components once they fail an inspection. At 87,067 miles over twenty years, the car has averaged a low of approximately 4,353 miles per year. This low usage often correlates with the vehicle sitting stationary, which explains the degradation of rubber components seen in the record. The data shows consistent annual mileage of roughly 1,500 to 2,000 miles between 2023 and 2026. However, low-mileage vehicles of this age are prone to age-related decay such as dry seals and perished bushings that mileage alone does not fully capture. A buyer should specifically inspect the exhaust system for signs of corrosion, as the leak noted in 2025 indicates thinning metal or a failing manifold gasket. The history of worn edges on rear tyres in 2024 and perished rubber in 2026 necessitates a check of the wheel alignment and suspension geometry to ensure tyres are not tracking incorrectly. Given the age and low usage, a thorough check for structural integrity in the sills and wheel arches is essential, as these older models are susceptible to rust when left undisturbed.
